Written by Jaclyn Yost | February 11, 2021
After the tragic death of George Floyd on May 25, 2020, pressing urgency on racial injustice was reignited around the world. Millions of people took to the streets to express their emotions – making the Black Lives Matter movement the largest in United States history and spanning into every continent, aside from Antartica. The aim of this photo essay is to showcase the fight for justice across the nation; visualizing powerful artistic and demonstrative expression.
